This event will see Gangs based on the forum here do battle against one another in the final year of IV. A series of set game modes that test a range of skill sets will be played, all matches that take place will always be no less than three gangs against one another. Meaning battles will be Gang vs Gang vs Gang. This is not a league or a leaderboard, this event is created for the purposes of having fun in a mix of modes against eachother. The winner get's bragging rights. The event is only open for Gangs based on the forum, you can not take part unless you are signed up to a gang on the forum

_______________________________________________________________Rules and Settings_______________________________________________________________

Team Death Match

The weapons for TDM must always be All weapons, blips far. Gangs compete to reach $5000 first. The winning Gang is rewarded 5 points from this round. The gang that is runner up receives 3 points and the team in third receives 1 point. Vehicles can be used, annihilator helicopters cannot. Cornershooting or glitching is also forbidden. All weapons can be used. If a player disconnects from the game, they should be invited back, if they disconnect during the lobby and cannot rejoin, a second lobby should be hosted. Under no circumstances can a game be restarted if a player disconnects mid-battle, same applies to all rounds. Location is dependent on the war.

Team Mafiya Work

The weapons for TMW must always be standard weapons, blips team. Gangs compete to reach $10000 first. The winning gang is rewarded 5 event points from this round. The gang that is runner up will receives 3 points and the gang that comes third receives 1 point also.

Race

Traffic will always be none and weather clear. Gangs are encouraged to drive cleanly, meaning no ramming or purposely blocking opponents, this will not be strictly enforced though. Gangs compete for podium finishes in 3 races, settings of which will depend on the location of the war. Gangs should co-ordinate themselves so they have the same colour vehicle. 1st place gets 3 points, 2nd place gets 2 points, 3rd place gets 1 point, and the fastest lap get's a bonus 1 point. Meaning each race has 7 points up for grabs. These points will then be tallied, and the gang with most points after 3 races will be rewarded 5 event points whilst the running up gang will get 3 points and third place will get 1 point.

General Rules

For each round, gangs can use different players, depending on their strengths/availability.If a player disconnects, they should be invited back, if they are kicked (glitched) during the lobby a new lobby will be created.If a player is kicked during a game, the games continues without them, but a substitute can be called.If there are four gangs competing the maximum number of players allowed in a match is four per a gang, however it is viable to have less than four and still take part.If three gangs compete the maximum is five per a gang, but again it is allowable to have less than five competing.Using any glitches to gain an advantage isn't tolerated. (cornershooting / protected vehicle driveby / turbo / inside or under maps).Annihilators are not to be used in TDM.During the races, any form of intentional crashing to slow opponents is not acceptable. (e.g. driving in reverse / setting road blocks). Friendly fire will be OFF. Chat will be TEAM ONLY. Weather will be CLEAR. Time of day RANDOM, all other settings see above.

The battles begin this weekend (time to be established), with the Battle of Bohan kicking things off

Game started off with all teams spread out, the action became focused in The Meadows area, North East Dukes, some tight battles around corners, a lot of sniping and sneaking, the battle was tight, and the lead kept changing between The Damned and The Mobile Military of Defense, eventually MMD took the win after a very crazy moment on one street corner...great game, could of gone either way.

Game started off with the Damned spawning in the docks, we quickly dispersed, whilst MMD secured the first task, we began the game a man down, when Muffin Man suddenly disappeared, outnumbered we still managed to build a healthy lead, with missions being completed by all members of the gang, personal highlight of my own was being pursued by MMD and dropping grenades everywhere (Share any of your own experiences if you wish).

Race points from the Races that conclude each war are counted here, individual with most points gained through podium finishes and fastest laps after final war, will win individual award for their efforts.

This is the current standings after the Domination of Dukes and Broker races.

Firstly thanks for the kind words so far, secondly I'm not based on Xbox, and so for me to take full responsibility for both consoles would be too much, initially on my first attempt to do this event, I did try to encourage every gang on the forum, both PSN and XBL to get together and make this work, but the Xboxer's in general were far more reluctant to be involved, furthermore the impression I get from a lot of players on that console on this forum, is that they are generally more petty and immature. There are exceptions of course, and I'd be more than honoured if this turns out to be a success on PSN, for an Xbox version to be set-up (I borrowed Racers N Breakers, which was great fun on PSN).

I'll be updating the first pages soon, with a few more tables and stuff. In the meantime, PSN gangs feel free to put your name down or give any feedback (I'm far from stubborn, and I want this to be as unbiased and balanced as possible).

Also, Leray nice signature

Oh I would actually have to agree, I know a few xboxers on here have turbos and some have mods, so people do tend to be more pissy on xbox than PS3 which I did actually find out my self when I had a PS3.

Btw, you shouldn't rush just yet to do it this weekend instantly, instead give it at least a week or two so all gangs can see it, and decide and sign up! I'd rather do it next weekend with 5 gangs (example) then this weekend with 3 if you know what i mean.

Thanks for signing up and showing an interest, I've listed both gangs under participants. Check to see if you want a different colour / Tag.

A time needs to be discussed amongst all participants, it wouldn't be fair if say I decided a time individually, as it could be considered biased towards my gang TDMC, anyways I was thinking this Sunday night, at around 6pm GMT?

Reaper, Nic 23, AndyGanteks and anyone else taking part , feel free to suggest a time that you would prefer, that way we can come to some sort of agreement. If no time can be agreed for this weekend, then it will take place the weekend after.

Hopefully D12 will also join, making it a 3 vs 3 vs 3 vs 3 vs 3 event. If not then it will most likely be 4 vs 4 vs 4 vs 4.

Familiarise yourselves with the rules and settings for this first battle, and remember even if your gang does terrible in this first event the war is not over, 3 more wars will follow, and in races anything can happen. Can't wait to get this finally started.

So here are the times preferred so far, once everyone has decided on a time, a date will be assigned.

TDMC - Saturday/Sunday after 6pm

MMD - Saturday/Sunday after 9pm

Y & THR MC yet to comment on preferred times

I'll also add a few more rules soon, just so everything is clear to begin with.

Secondly, just to let you all know, the settings for TDM and TMW modes will remain constant, but I'll be contacting every gang leader involved, after the first event to pick race settings for future wars, this way every gang has equal input and control over the settings included for the race's part of the wars coming after the initial one (Note: Tracks should be on/near the respective islands on which that war is based)

Keep spam to a minimum in the topic (it's not a crappy Xbox roleplay topic), but please continue to post time preferences and/or any suggestions you think could add to this unique event.

You should use http://timeanddate.com/ to calculate times from different timezones. It's really helpful for all people to see when the events will be in their timezones.

Thanks I'll add the link to the first pages soon.

@Andy, yeah I agree, perhaps Friday - Gang League, Sunday - Gang War ? There is always next weekend though. Which would give every gang, chance to organise, their team death match squads from their racers, and that sort of thing.

A J

I haven't received any time/day preferences from either the Yardies or The Highway Reapers. Secondly D12 are yet to join this event, but I'm hoping they will as it would unite all the ps3 gangs on the forum together.

I had hoped this Sunday would provide a good time for us all, however because it's tomorrow and a lot of people don't use the forum over the weekend, it will be next weekend without fail.

Perhaps next Friday at 21.00 GMT (same time you played D12). If THR MC and The Yardies are unhappy with this time, or even members of TDMC or MMD prefer something different then everyone needs to say as soon as possible.

Well, as far as we're concerned, we can play tomorrow. We'll only have 2 players available this weekend though, so it would be 4v4v4v2, but i don't mind. If MMD, Damned and THR MC want to play tomorrow so be it. We'll join with 2, won't have much chance to win that way, but as i said i don't mind. 3 more battles to go after all, ling way to go.
